Oakleigh Chargers became the first team to win back-to-back Coates Talent League Girls premierships with an 18-point Grand Final victory over Eastern Ranges.

The Chargers made a fast start and didn’t look back in the 5.7 (37) to 2.7 (19) victory at IKON Park on Saturday.

It was a history-making result, with the Chargers becoming the first team to defend a Coates Talent League Girls flag, having defeated the Eastern Ranges by seven points in last year’s Grand Final.

The triumph gave the Chargers their third Coates Talent League Girls premiership, following successes in 2023 and 2021.

Oakleigh Chargers captain Sienna Tallariti produced another dominant performance across half back to win the best on ground medal for the second year in a row.

Tallariti, who was a member of the 2024 Marsh AFL National Academy Girls, amassed 24 disposals, 14 rebound 50s and took six marks to become the first player to win the best on ground medal twice.

She had great support from bottom-age star Chloe Bown (23 disposals, 10 tackles), Maggie Mahony (17 disposals, 14 tackles) and Zoe Curry (22 disposals, five clearances).

Grace Belloni was outstanding for Eastern Ranges and collected a game-high 30 possessions and eight clearances, while Georgia Knight booted both goals.
